Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 lb cooked shrimp rinsed and chopped (plus extras for garnish)
  • 1 baguette sliced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 bunch parsley chopped
  • 1/2 bunch dill fresh or frozen, chopped
  • 1 cup three-cheese Mexican blend

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Shrimp: Rinse 1/2 lb cooked shrimp under cold water and chop them into small pieces. Place the shrimp in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
  2. Chop the Herbs and Garlic: Roughly chop 1/2 bunch parsley and 1/2 bunch dill (fresh or frozen). Mince 2 cloves garlic. Add these ingredients to the bowl with the chopped shrimp.
  3. Add Creaminess: Stir in 1/2 cup mayonnaise and 1 cup three-cheese Mexican blend cheese until everything is evenly combined. The mixture should be creamy, with the cheese evenly distributed throughout.
  4. Slice and Prepare the Baguette: Take 1 baguette and slice it into approximately 1-inch thick pieces. Arrange the slices on a baking sheet.
  5. Spread the Mixture: Generously spread the shrimp and cheese mixture over each slice of baguette, ensuring they are well-covered.
  6. Bake to Perfection: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the canapés for about 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges of the bread are slightly toasted. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning!
  7. Garnish: For an extra touch, consider adding a whole sautéed shrimp on top of each canapé just before serving for presentation and flavor.
